PSG vs Monaco Match Tips & Previews

The first domestic silverware of the French football season will be lifted on Saturday night and it is a mouthwatering tie in prospect as PSG take on Monaco in the League Cup final. Both sides have had disappointments so far this campaign but there is plenty to play for as we enter the final quarter of the season.

PSG will claim the title with Unai Emery’s team currently a massive 17 points clear at the top of the division with just seven matches left to play this term. PSG have lost just twice in the league and have been absolutely ruthless following the signings of Neymar and teenager Kylian Mbappe in the summer.

Monaco meanwhile have struggled to replicate their stunning form from last season, when they swept to the Ligue 1 title and the semi-finals of the Champions League where they were knocked out by Juventus. It looks almost certain that they will finish second and get an automatic place in the group stage for next season, but to challenge PSG they will surely need to heavily invest in their team which was severely weakened following the sales of players such as Mbappe and Bernardo Silva last summer.
